Side Topic from Lion vs Kage Thread (Myke = Shang)

Isn't this kind of hypocritical and uncalled for? Seriously, Myke, Kage is NOT a family member. He's not even a real person, yet you start getting upset when people start to "insult" him (it?).
Come on man, please, don't take this stuff so personal, Kage is just a video game character and VF is just a video game. It's worth talking about bc yes, most of us here love this game but there's no need to start belittling and insulting each other's intelligence because of a damn video game.

Funny story, before you made your little "for the slow people out there" remark on the Lau Should Be S Tier thread, I was on irc and I mentioned how civil the Kage discussion was going so far. I was kinda saying it just to mess with Shang while pointing out how if nobody started hurling offensive insults, a decent convo could be had on the subject.
Lo and behold, the very first one out of you, Srider or myself to hurl an insult was you /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/shocked.gif

Look, I know you ain't perfect, nobody is but I'm really not trying to go there with you. I have my opinion and you have yours but there's no need to get so damn sensitive about it. I joke around a lot but I seriously do think that a) you are a Kage apoligist and b) you take attacks on Kage WAY too personal. My opinion and I'm entitled to it.

Is it really necessary to call anybody "slow" or imply that maybe they can't "retain the olde art of reading and comprehension" just because they don't see your point of view clearly? I understand that you, in your own opinion, have been sooo crystal clear but if you can't debate without resorting to disparaging comments, aren't you just a more eloquent version of Shang with administrative power?

Just thought I'd mention this before somebody got banned and/or homophobic insults and f-bombs started flying.

Oh oh, too late.

 

Your statement is so unbelievably far out of line that it almost makes no sense at all. Please stop drinking the Shang-flavored Kool-Aid.

 

Hey, we would be spared of much of the entertaining drama if people wouldnt take things personal every once in a while! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/grin.gif

 

HAHAHAA! Shang-flavored Kool-Aid... good one, Plague /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/thumbs_up.gif

It's too bad you think that I'm far out of line but, please, do note that I have NOT insulted Myke's intelligence or comprehension skills. Also, please, do note that I wrote "IF you can't debate without resorting to disparaging comments, aren't you just a more eloquent version of Shang with administrative power?" If, Plague, if.

Was my post obscene?
Should I not disagree or point out when I think somebody's wrong or starting to get belligerent?
Please, enlighten me. How exactly am I out of line?

 

My apologies, I was wrong.
I'm out.

 

erbody needa just chill the fuck out forreal. myke is not the type to insult people. in fact, he's a very down-to-earth, kangaroo ridin, crocodile huntin typa guy and he always tries to help individuals who seek advise. however, in doing so, he may sound a bit sarcastic or condescending, but i truly doubt he intends to be offensive. it's hard to read his gestures online, but if you ever meet him in person, he is nothing but friendly and easy to laugh with.

CRICKEY! /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/laugh.gif

 

Plague, would you be saying this if you weren't a mod? The world may never know. Most of YOUR arguments or whatever are far out of line. Give me a fucking break.

Please enough of the flaming. It's giving me a headache. /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif

 

Your comment towards Tony was unnecessary.

KILL YOURSELF PLAGUE!

 

Re: Side Topic from Lion vs Kage Thread (Myke = Sh

I don't think comparing Myke to Shang is fair either. I've read some of Shang's old posts and they are of a completely different tone than anything Myke has ever written in my time being on VFDC.

<u>For example:</u>

When the hell has Myke EVER written anything even CLOSE to that?!?

Shang's post were hateful, gross personal attacks. He said something about "your mom on black cock" in one the Kage posts, that's honestly off the charts of hatefulness and disgustingness... I've never met Shang but I've read his posts and played him online a couple of times and, as odd as it may sound, I can tell he is a complete asshole. Just the amount of anger he responds to posts with show what an arrogant POS he is.

Comparing Myke to someone like that is actually a personal attack because no one here would want to be associated with the type of behavior Shang displayed. I'd be pretty insulted to if someone tried to equate me with Shang. I'm from Boston an so is Shang but I have NO INTEREST in meeting that dude to play VF5 ever. I'd honestly probably assault him if he acts the way he did on VFDC in real life.

I'm sure someone will paste this on IRC so your little buddy Shang can flame me, but go ahead, I hope he knows I think he's a POS.

Shang you're a bitch.[/size]

Re: Side Topic from Lion vs Kage Thread (Myke = Sh

Renzo, thanks for sticking up for me bro, I appreciate it but I'd rather just squash this thing all together.
Both Plague and Myke are saying that it wasn't a fair comparison what I said about Myke and yeah, I think we have all come off as a little dramatic so let's just drop it, please.
Most of us are guys here, not gals and we're kinda like a family... yeah, sometimes family argues and fights but after the smoke clears, it's really not that serious, life's too short /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif

Let' go back to the days of old when we all sat around singing our favorite song

Ok why is it that I associate that last song with Lethal Weapon 4? Man I'm a geek.

I chuckled at this because Shang was my sparring partner for many years when I lived in Boston. I can tell you he's not a bad person, but he is an asshole...

 

Is this worse than Anti-Chan(Pai and Lau) threads? /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/eek.gif

 

Re: Side Topic from Lion vs Kage Thread (Myke = Sh

He isn't like that in real life?? Man that's so unique. Normally internet tough guys are really confrontive and aggressive when you meet them for real also.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body">he is an asshole... </div></div>

Now that I can actually believe!

Now let's get this show on the road, everyone overreacted a bit. I never thought I'd see the day when Renzo and Plague of all people got into a bit of a scuffle. Tony is a good guy, he didn't mean much with the Shang thing - it's been blown out of proportion. Myke contributes a lot to this site, Shang was/is just a attentionwhore. Cheer up Srider.

For love of the game / KiwE

 

Re: Side Topic from Lion vs Kage Thread (Myke = Sh

When we went down to Boston for a tourney Shang was an awesome host, and even decided to treat everybody to dinner. Shang is like Jekyl and Hide, online and off.

Seems like the topic has been settled, but just wanted to put that in o.o
